Fight Fire with Fire is for those who want to make
real changes in their life, not just talk about it. It’s
for those with self-doubt, who are scared to put
themselves out there. This book provides the spark
and the mechanisms to help you go from self-doubt
to self-confidence, from procrastination to action,
using the tried-and-proven planning and systems
that make our Fire Departments so successful at
what they do. After all – they can’t take a day off,
ever. You can use these strategies to help you:
• lose weight
• gain self-confidence
• find a new job or get better at your current job
• start or complete study
• beat an addiction
• become a fitter and healthier you
• overcome any behaviors or obstacles that are
stopping you from reaching your goals.
We live in an age of unprecedented opportunity.
If you have a plan, ambition and commitment you
can achieve great things, regardless of where you
started out. It’s up to you to carve out your place,
to know when to change course, and to know how
to stay productive and committed.
Are you achieving what you
set out to?
Do you have a good reason
to get out of bed every day?
Are you meeting your own
expectations?
If not now, when? If not you, who?
